    x86, UV: Remove BAU check for stay-busy · 90cc7d94

    Remove a faulty assumption that a long running BAU request has
    encountered a hardware problem and will never finish.
    
    Numalink congestion can make a request appear to have
    encountered such a problem, but it is not safe to cancel the
    request.  If such a cancel is done but a reply is later received
    we can miss a TLB shootdown.
    
    We depend upon the max_bau_concurrent 'throttle' to prevent the
    stay-busy case from happening.
